[HTML][HTML] Atopic dermatitis increases the effect of exposure to peanut antigen in dust on peanut sensitization and likely peanut allergy
HA Brough, AH Liu, S Sicherer, K Makinson… - Journal of Allergy and …, 2015 - Elsevier
Background History and severity of atopic dermatitis (AD) are risk factors for peanut allergy.
Recent evidence suggests that children can become sensitized to food allergens through an
impaired skin barrier. Household peanut consumption, which correlates strongly with peanut
protein levels in household dust, is a risk factor for peanut allergy. Objective We sought to
assess whether environmental peanut exposure (EPE) is a risk for peanut sensitization and
allergy and whether markers of an impaired skin barrier modify this risk. Methods Peanut …
